DELAY MAY CALL FOR FORCE Dil Oonduct . of Heavy To: ors 13 i n Annoying Mr. lunh;w [ OFFICE MAY MAKE THE ASSESSMENTS n Commissioner Declines to Out Railread Policy, but Hints at Full Osah Valuat for Basia. “The indications are that the richest class local taxpayers and the owners of the largest business establishments are golng to take chances of having their assess- ment made by this office, reserving, of course, the right to protest before the Board of Review,” sald Tax Commissioner Fleming. “Very few persoual property schedules haye been recelved from the cap- ftalistic class or the large business men, although the time when all returns must be iu is near, there being less than ten days more. Not since I have hdld the office have these classes been so dilatory, I am fnclined to charge it up to the Nt tion over phases of the new revenus law and the uncertainty of several of its provi- \ tax department la experiencing con- siderable @ifficulty. with persons who send unsworn and unsigned schedules of per- sonal property to the city hall. Two- thirds of those recefved si.ce the revenue law was projected into court have lacked these essentials. Yesterday one man was engaged all day In returning schedules in order that the signatures d oaths may be afixed. An impression scems to prevall among property owners that the court ruled & sworn statement unnecessary, whereas, Mr. Fleming polnts out, it daid nothing of the kind, merely declding against the navguration of the particular form of oath which s specified by the new law. Hints at Full Onsh Basis. Commissioner Fleming was asked how he proposes to deal with the raliroads this year. “I am not ready to give out any in- formation on that point,” he replied. “The genera! understanding s, however, that the city will proceed to assess the transporta- “ion lines on the basis of a full cash valua- tion, as any other procedure would be in- coneistent with the fight for equal taxation of rallroad property, started last year, and which is in the federal courts.” City Attorney Wright is in Lincoln ap- pearing for the city in the suit brodght by the forelgn fire insurance companies to determine the legality of that part of the rovenue law applying to them. They claim they are diseriminated agalnst in favor of home companies. —— Notes from Army Headquarters.

The publication of the special commit- tee’s report relating to the unsanitary con- dition of the poor farm has proven to be & boomerang and the county commisstoners were besleged yesterday by citizens pro- testing against a continuance of both the methods of letting contracts and the pres- ent conditions at the poor farm. Speaking upon the report of the commit- tee and the fact that each member thereof had submitted a bill of $300 for his services, Commissioner O'Keeffe thought it an out- rage. It was intimated that unless the present system of bleeding the county coased some”one would be up before the grand jury. The fact that the county had employed & plumber to look after the poor farm has proven particularly galling In view of later developmgnts when it is shown that the bullding is in worse condition now than when the plumber was first employed. The protest against a continuance of ex- isting conditions at the county farm is general and one of the commissioners stated that he wished to absent himself for a time unless some hope is held out that remedial measures will be taken. | —— OCLEANLY WOMAN. ‘ Erremeously Thinks by Scouring Her Scalp that She Cures Dandr: | Cleanly woman has an erroneous idea that by scouring the scalp, which removes the dandruff scales, she is curing the dand- ruft. She may wash her scalp every day, and yet have dandruft her life long, accom- | panied by falling hair, too.

OPERATORS GET MORE PAY Rock Isl Men Are Given Imcrease in Wages Dem. d by Their The telegraph operators on the Rock Island are granted an increase of from 15 |to 2 per cent, beginning November 1. The amount is just what was asked by the Order of Raliway Telegraphers. As they {are at present there is a maximum monthly of 35 and & minimum of $0. This places the Rock Island in the same class with all of the raliroads but the Union Pacific |and the Burlington. The Union Pacific re- cently granted its employes an increase and now maintains & maximum salary of $80 and the mintmum of $53.3%%. It pays the highest salaries of any roads in this terri- tory. The Burlington just a short time ago gave its employes a voluntary increase SWIFTS ACAINST THE ROAD Packing Oompany Joins in Move to Block Union Paoifie. OPPOSED TO SOUTH OMAHA VIADUCT Cases for injunctl to Prevent Ex. tension of Right-of-Way Helng Argued in District Court. The effort to block the Union Pacifie rail- way's attempt to acquire additional track- facilities and an extension of its right- of-way In South Omaha was the subject for argument before Judge Dickinson yes- terday in the case of the Swift Packing company against Frank Koutsky, mayor, and the city councll of South Omaha, The first opposition to the Union Paclfic's project for increasing its trackage in South Omaha was noted over a month ago, when & restraining order was granted in the case of Magdalena Pivonka against Mayor Frank Koutsky and the city couneil. In that case it was alleged that the acquisition of the proposed right-of-way and the cross- ing of certain streets would work irre- parable injury to what was alleged to be | the principal business section of the city. Following the arguments, a restraining | order was granted. And now comes the Switt packing com- pany asking for a temporary injunction on practically the same grounds set forth in the Plvonka case. The points of differ- ence in .the two cases center about the allegatjon on the part of the Swift company that the granting of the proposed right-of- way will shut off all means of ingress and egress to the Swift company's packing practically impossible for the Swift interest to secure fire Insurance for its extensive holdings in South Omaha, * It is argued that the streets proposed to be vacated have no connection with the proposed viaduct, but are several blocks away, and thelr vacation is the inducement struet the viaducts. ther states that: It 1s not proposed tc vacate these streets because such vacation is in the interest of the public, but because the donation of the vacated ground to the railroad company will be accepted by these corporations as & consideration for constructing the viaduct. The question is, “Can the ity vacate pub- lic streets for the purpose of giving the ound to the raliroad company as an in- ucement to the erection of this viaduet?” It is proposed to give the vacated streets to the raiiroad company to induce the con struction of the viaduct under considera tion, a few feet of which at the east end will' be in & public street of the city, and the whole of the remainder will be uj the private J)ruparty of these companles, the west end being upon the property o the stock yards company, with 1o be‘iond. hiere is no public purpose stated in the original petiti that it is for the benefit of -corporations and that the viaduet will | be private property. In this connection the attorneys for the plaintiff say that it Is true that the com. panies ugree to “grant the use” of so much of their ground as s necessary for the support of the proposed viaduet, but that of % per month, wioves and bread and roast the meat ranges bake the make Lhe max n reality the proposed right-of-way would be a grant to these companies and for their own benefit. The arguments 1a the case wul houses and that the fire hasard will be | augmented to such a degree that it will be | or consideration for the agreement to con- | The memoranda m-.‘ be continued. The court room was crowded during the morning, and much in- terest is manifested in the case. Although a restraining order has been granted in the Pivonka case, the Swift company thinks that case may not be well grounded, and it has therefore instituted & similar proceed- ing on grounds which it deems sounder, and on this application a temporary injunc- tion s asked. BACK FROM WESTERN TOUR Federal Good Roads Official Views Pacific from Dominion te 01d Mexico. Maurice O. Eldridge, assistant director in the office of public road inquiries of the United States department of Ariculture, Washingtcn, D. C., 18 in the city a guest of R. W. Richardson. He has just re- turned from the Pacific coast, where he has been Inspecting the road system of that section. He attended the state good roads convention at Spokane, Wash. “Samuel W. Hill, son-in-law of J. J. Hill, the rallway magnate, was appointed by the convention to go to Washington and work fer the passage of the Brownlow bill," sald Mr, Eldridge. “James W. Abbott, a member of congress from Washingtons and myself made an ex- tensive tour of the Pacific coast from Brit- |1sh Columbia to Old Mexico, taking in the Puget sound country by rall and water. We inspected the straw-bullt roads of the Palouse region, Washington, as well as the | ofl roads of southern California. Too much canngt be sald of the success of the oll highways of southern California, and I am free to admit that the inventor of the system . is as great a benefactor to the world/as the inventor of the macadam sys- tem of highways. These oll roads are as £00d, 1 not better, in many respects, than asphait. = The roadbeds are first bullt in the usual way, with a slight central crown to permit the water to run off, of ordinary dirt. ‘The road is then rolled and subse- |auently barrowed to & depth of two inches. It is then sprinkied with water. After a few hours, and before the water has com- pletely evaporated, the roadbed s sprinkled with ofl. Sand is then laid over this ofl- sprinkled surface and & ‘mixer run over | it, which forces the sand and off down into the roadbed, making a surface impervious |to water and of remarkable durability, The surface becomes hard and compact and will last for from three to four years with- out additional ofl sprnklng. Whatever dust blows from the adjacent lands be- comes packed onto the oll percolated road and assists in giving it a finishing surtace These roads will sustain all the traffc in ordinary use in that country. The ofl road plan has been adopted iIn many of the park systems of California cities and |18 = pronounced success. The ofl roaa is certainly a success and I predict that it ‘will become the popular boulevard road- bed throughout the country as soon as its merits become fully known.” — Boy Cured of Oroup im Fifteen Minutes.
